Gus > colonialism was mainly a white evil

That is true but the only place I'm aware of in the world today where colonialism is taking place is Israel. Other previously colonised countries eg India, South Africa, USA, New Zealand and Australia have all adopted a completely non-racial policy in the way they are being governed. Some countries have even made retribution to blacks (locals) for the oppression of bygone days, most often by affirmative action eg South Africa, Malaysia.

Of course, there are those whites who still nurture ideas of racial supremacy and even those blacks, like Mugabe, who entertain ideas of reverse racism but, as far as I am concerned, these are today fringe elements of a world society which is becoming increasingly "colour neutral".

As we both know, Zionism is the exception to this world trend and for Zionism to survive, let alone flourish, it has to encourage and foster racial and religious intolerance, but of a particular sort where the Zionist (Jew, if you prefer) is always seen to be struggling against racial and religious oppression from others. In other words, the Zionist cause is the reaction to what others have done to the them and this "reverse psychology" if you will gives it legitimacy, at least in their eyes and those who support them. Hence, the supreme icon of the Zionist is the Holocaust and it is for this reason that no debate or discussion about Holocaust is tolerated lest the legitimacy of Zionism itself is challenged.
